My Fate System

The darkness rushed toward his hand and entered his body. Then, as if it was trying to destroy him, it traveled toward his Dantian. However, Nikolai’s dark mana was there to welcome it.

‘Caught you,’ Nikolai grinned as he touched the edge of the weapon as the darkness began to dissipate like smoke. The shape of the blade go revealed, and Nikolai held his breath.

As dark as night, the weapon was entirely black. It was a curved blade with a black engraved handle. When Nikolai thought that was all, he saw a chain at the bast of the handle.

‘This is…’ He traced the chain, which was several meters, all the way to the other side. ‘Twin blades?’

As all of the darkness entered his body, the case had nothing but the two weapons linked by a chain inside it. Nikolai retracted his hand as he realized what type of weapon it was.

Twin scimitars.

“This chain connects these scimitars. That’s all I know about them.” Lex said as she covered her nose. “But you… managed to touch it?” She asked with a fearful expression.

“The darkness entered his body. Is boss going to be alright?” Sergio asked as he held into several healing potions, ready to rush to Nikolai’s aid.

“I’m fine…” Nikolai said before he felt a stabbing pain in his heart. At the same time, darkness exploded from the weapons as an aura of destruction gushed out, pushing everyone away.

“Who dares breaks my seal?” A voice boomed in Nikolai’s mind as the blades floated in the air. Sergio and Yuxi fell to the ground, unconscious. 

“Are you the one living inside the scimitars?” Nikolai asked as he clutched his chest with sweat rolling down his face.

“Impudent mortal.” The voice rebuked. “I am the demonic spirit sealed in these blades. Are you the one who wishes to use me?”

“I am,” Nikolai nodded with a pained expression, not expecting this spirit to make things easier for him. After a slight pause, the darkness manifested into a demonic being above it.

“My name is Rivan,” The demonic being said. “If you wish to use my powers, you will have to be worthy of them.”

“A demonic spirit?” Lex muttered beside him, her face pale. “Haha, a demonic weapon for the Abyssal Art!” She laughed heartily with a grin. The demonic spirit turned to her with a blank expression.

“What’s wrong with her?” Rivan asked Nikolai, who simply shrugged. “Poor girl, she must have a rotten head.”

“Woah…” Lex’s face froze.

“How do I prove worthy?” Nikolai frowned. This demonic spirit had a vague shape, but its actions looked too human.

“Easy. Don’t die.” Rivan grinned as it rushed toward Nikolai, entering his chest. “If you do, I’ll devour your soul.” It said within his mind as Nikolai’s mind got dragged into the darkness.

“What is this?”

Rivan looked round the dark sea of consciousness. It couldn’t believe this was the Inner Sea of a human. It was darker than any of the demonic spirits it knew.

“Well, what happened to you devouring my soul?”

Rivan turned to look at the human standing behind it. Inside the sea of consciousness, it could see the ‘human’ standing there leisurely.

“You are no human.” Rivan glared at the dark being with caution. “You are…”

“Doesn’t matter what I am.” The young man in front of it grinned. “You entered this place, so don’t expect to leave easily.”

As he said that, he raised his hand, and a black cube appeared above it. The moment it saw the cube, Rivan began trembling in fear.

“Why… How can your wretched race still exist?” Rivan roared in wrath as its darkness exploded. However, the cube ate it away easily. The more darkness it used, the bigger the cube became. Its powers no longer belonged to it inside the body of this creature.

“How… no…”

“I believe that this weapon can’t exist without a spirit.” The Dark Being in front of it grinned, its crimson eyes turning into crescent moons. “Are you going to submit, or are you going to perish?” Rivan’s body shook because it knew that this creature would never allow it to live.

It thought that the time finally arrived to be released from its seal, but it had to encounter a member of that race. Rivan would have blamed its rotten luck, but that would be idiotic. Luck was their plaything.

‘I need to flee.’ Rivan turned around and began running away madly. It tried breaking free from the sea of consciousness, but it was futile.

***

The moment that the spirit entered his body, it pulled Nikolai into his sea of consciousness. When he arrived, he noticed one thing: his cube was eating the darkness away.

Furthermore, the cube was growing bigger after it ate away the darkness. That’s why Nikolai decided to devour the spirit instead. His primal instincts kicked as he watched the spirit flee, making him chase after it.

“Let’s see what happens when I devour a spirit.” Nikolai grinned and opened his mouth, his sharp teeth protruding. He bit on the demonic spirit as his eyes snapped open.

“No!” Rivan screamed as Nikolai devoured the darkness. “Please, let me go! I’ll never tell anyone that you still exist! Please, AAHHH!”

It tried begging more, but Nikolai devoured it whole. Unlike the heavenly feeling of eating humans, Nikolai felt as if there was a lump in his throat.

‘Maybe I overdid it…’ Nikolai’s eyes snapped open as the darkness exploded from within his body, filling his body. He began to lose consciousness as there was nothing but darkness.

***

“Bossman!”

Nikolai opened his eyes when he heard Sergio’s voice calling out for him. He could see Sergio and Lex staring at him with concerned expressions.

“He’s awake!” Lex looked relieved as she backed away.

Nikolai jumped up and touched the headband on his head, but it was still there. He sighed in relief and turned to look at Sergio and the rest.

“What happened?”
